The invention relates to a method for securing a charging station (100) for electric vehicle(s), said station (100) comprising a compartment (102) in which is disposed an electrical connection means (104-108) designed to establish an electrical link with a vehicle to be charged, and a cover (116) movable between an open position and a closed position. The method comprises the following steps: measurement of at least one value of at least one parameter relating to the closure of said cover (116), comparison of said at least one measured value of said parameter with at least one predefined threshold value, and transmission of at least one warning signal to an external means outside said station (100) and/or an internal means (148) to said station (100), when said comparison yields an anomaly.
